Why Lightning Strike. Barns.

lightning is simply powerful cleo
trio spark. or rather current Of cleo
tricity passing from a positively to a
negatively electrically charged cloud
and part Of the earth's surface. Elec-
tricity follows the shortest and most
favorable course or the best conductors.
Water is most favorable conducting
substance. and a stream or body OF
heated moist air affords an easy course
for the passage of the electricity to
the earth from the clouds or
to the clouds from the earth.
A barn with new hay or. grain
gives of considerable quantity OF
moist warm air, which. rising. forms
column sometimes several hundred
feet high. This leads the lightning
into the barn, which is. of course. set
on fire. Barns with ventilating Gu
polas are most often thus burned. be-
cause the warm. moist air ascends in
compact stream. When the venIi-
lation is through several openings
there is less risk. A lightning rod is
not capable Of carrying discharge
Of electricity such as comes in the
form Of lightning. and hence is no pro-
lection under these circumstances;
it is effective as safeguard
only when it leads the electricity from
the clouds or atmosphere silently and
slowly in continuous current to the
ground. Sometimes a current Of
warm. moist air will conduct the cleo
tricity safely in this way, but if break
occurs in it flash is produced. which
will set the resisting substance on fire.
Stacks of hay are thus not so frequent
ly burned in this way as barns are.
Trees, which continually give of moist
ure from their leaves into the air. in
ike manner, are often struck by light
ming. while dry. dead trees escape. =
